  3. Mic ichigan higan WE WEA A Collections Collections Seminar eminar Octo ctober ber 1, 1, 200 2009 After we started sewer systems, the need for inspection and cleaning quickly arose. The beginning of sewer line inspection was not with CCTV, but rather a primitive test which was only really capable of finding infiltration or a failure of the so called inspection method. First holes used to access the collection systems were referred to as lamp holes. Only large enough to lower a lamp which was used to see if light would appear at the other end. Later years the candle was dragged from one manhole to another by floating a thin line, such as a fishing line downstream with the flow and then retrieving it at the downstream hole. The thread was used to allow the operator to later pull a sled or a wagon on which the candle was placed. It was felt that, if the candle would still be lit at the far end if there was not a problem with the line. If infiltration occurred, then it was thought that the candle would be extinguished. This of course also remained true if the candle went past a lateral with flow, or rolled over during the inspection also. At the end of the day, the operator would have a simple set of data which showed if a line passed or failed. A failure usually meant a re-inspection. If an actual failure did indeed occur the operator still had no idea where in the line the infiltration occurred.
